The workspace
Less switching. More doing.
Open different connections in tabs, keep them running as you switch, and reach the tools you need without leaving the app.
Files within reach
Browse remote files beside an SSH session or open a dedicated SFTP tab to upload and download.
Desktop in a tab
Connect to Windows with embedded RDP, dynamic resizing, clipboard support, and file transfer.
Legacy connections
Use native Telnet sessions for devices that still need it, with clear warnings about unencrypted traffic.
Organized connections
Save hosts in groups, mark favorites, and keep multiple live sessions open at once.
Private by design
Store saved passwords in macOS Keychain. Export connections without credentials, or encrypt an export when including them.
